Hi,

WeeWX is not receiving any archive records from your station, hence nothing is saved to archive and your generated reports are unchanged. It's possible you have corrupt station memory. I recommend you work through the Corrupt station memory section of the Troubleshooting Davis stations wiki entry.

By the way, seeing 0 files copied in copygenerator log entry lines like:

Oct 15 18:20:23 weewx weewx[24814]: copygenerator: copied 0 files to /var/www/html/weewx

is quite normal.

Gary

[Joe]

Curious then why if its normal you think there is a corrupt station memory?

[Greg from Oz]

Delete the files and see if they are regenerated.

[gjr80]

The intent and operation of the copy generator is misunderstood by many. The intent of the copy generator is to copy files from the skin directory to wherever, it does not copy files that have been generated from templates by the cheetah generator. The copy generator is usually used if you have static files that need to be copied to a web server or similar so that the cheetah generated file will work as intended; for example, you may have css files that need to be copied to a web server so that a cheetah generated HTML file renders correctly, or you may have javascript files that are needed for the HTML page to work correctly. The copy generator has two basic modes of operation; copy once and copy always; copy once copies the specified files the first time the report cycle is run, copy always copies the specified files on every report cycle.

The WeeWX Seasons skin uses the copy generator to copy css once only, every report cycle thereafter does not copy anything. So if you look at the Seasons skin entries in the log you will see almost all entries have 'copied 0 files'.

Deleting files will not force the copy generator to copy them again on the next report cycle. Copy once is executed once on the first report cycle after WeeWX startup. Copy always is executed on every report cycle. In both cases the copy generator is executed irrespective of whether the destination files exist or not.

I had to do the DUMP and CLEAR command unfortunately.

It's working again.

[Joe]

I had to do the CLEAR / DUMP again today. It took about three days for it to happen again where it was failing to update online.

Is there a way to test/look at the dongle memory chip to determine if it is " bad " ?
